Happy 6th Birthday Lilly...

Today Lilly turned 6! I can't believe my baby is 6.... It only seems like yesterday that she was just a little girl, and now she is so grown up and independent... She had a great day... absolutely flat out.... First there were presents in the morning, then a party at the bike centre in the afternoon, then Maccas for tea...

Lilly with her new skateboard. She was so excited to get one as she has been asking for ages, she spent the morning outside practicing her 'stunts' and was very happy to show anyone who would watch what she could do.

Another of her presents was a pogo stick...


She had a great party... she had so many friends come... but it was great. She invited her entire prep class, plus her friends from church and her cousins. So all up if you include brothers and sisters that came there was about 35 kids there. She had fun opening the presents from her friends, ... and insisted on reading every card to see what her friends wrote....

A Reflection on Lilly...

Cute as a little button and loved by everyone...

The youngest of six, but not to be out done by any of them, and she certainly knows who's the boss...

At 2, always full of mischief and ready with smile... With a love of life....

At 3, sweet as sugar and knowing how to get everyone to do as she wants...

At 4 I would know all is well when she gave me the thumbs up, (and she still does)...

At 5, absolutley loving school....

Nearly 6, and ready to take on the world..
